Ibuprofen prevents the conjugative transfer of plasmid-mediated antimicrobial resistance genes
Refractory infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria pose a significant threat to public health. Here we report that ibuprofen inhibits conjugation of the RP4 plasmid and plasmids from clinical strains carrying different resistance genes including mcr-1, blaNDM, blaKPC, tet(X4), and tmexCD1-toprJ1. Mechanistic studies suggest that ibuprofen reduces ATP production and inhibits conjugation-related genes. The inhibitory effect of ibuprofen on conjugation has significant clinical implications for preventing the spread of multidrug resistance, opening new therapeutic avenues to combat multidrug-resistant bacteria.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance (JGAR) is a quarterly online journal run by an international Editorial Board that focuses on the global spread of antibiotic-resistant microbes.
JGAR is a dedicated journal for all professionals working in research, health care, the environment and animal infection control, aiming to track the resistance threat worldwide and provides a single voice devoted to antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
Featuring peer-reviewed and up to date research articles, reviews, short notes and hot topics JGAR covers the key topics related to antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and antiparasitic resistance.
